[Project No. 10887-000]


Carthage Specialty Paperboard, Inc.; Notice of Authorization for 
Continued Project Operation

    On October 31, 2019, Carthage Specialty Paperboard, Inc., licensee 
for the Carthage Paper Maker Mill Hydroelectric Project No.10887, filed 
an Application for a New Minor License pursuant to the Federal Power 
Act (FPA) and the Commission's regulations thereunder. The Carthage 
Paper Maker Mill Hydroelectric Project is located on the Black River, 
near the Village of Carthage, Jefferson and Lewis Counties, New York.
    The license for Project No.10887 was issued for a period ending 
October 31, 2021. Section 15(a)(1) of the FPA, 16 U.S.C. 808(a)(1), 
requires the Commission, at the expiration of a license term, to issue 
from year-to-year an annual license to the then licensee(s) under the 
terms and conditions of the prior license until a new license is 
issued, or the project is otherwise disposed of as provided in section 
15 or any other applicable section of the FPA. If the project's prior 
license waived the applicability of section 15 of the FPA, then, based 
on section 9(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C.

[[Page 24554]]

558(c), and as set forth at 18 CFR 16.21(a), if the licensee of such 
project has filed an application for a New Minor License, the licensee 
may continue to operate the project in accordance with the terms and 
conditions of the license after the minor or minor part license 
expires, until the Commission acts on its application. If the licensee 
of such a project has not filed an application for a subsequent 
license, then it may be required, pursuant to 18 CFR 16.21(b), to 
continue project operations until the Commission issues someone else a 
license for the project or otherwise orders disposition of the project.
    If the project is subject to section 15 of the FPA, notice is 
hereby given that an annual license for Project No.10887 is issued to 
Carthage Specialty Paperboard, Inc. for a period effective November 1, 
2021 through October 31, 2022 or until the issuance of a new license 
for the project or other disposition under the FPA, whichever comes 
first. If issuance of a new license (or other disposition) does not 
take place on or before October 31, 2022, notice is hereby given that, 
pursuant to 18 CFR 16.18(c), an annual license under section 15(a)(1) 
of the FPA is renewed automatically without further order or notice by 
the Commission, unless the Commission orders otherwise.
    If the project is not subject to section 15 of the FPA, notice is 
hereby given that Carthage Specialty Paperboard, Inc. is authorized to 
continue operation of the Carthage Paper Maker Mill Hydroelectric 
Project, until such time as the Commission acts on its application for 
a New Minor License.

    Dated: April 19, 2022.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
